guvmentkid Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Hey all, Just wondering if our economic woes -- resulting in programs scaling back on cohort size -- will mean the job outlook for those entering programs now will be that much better in 4-6 years? Presumably, there will be a smaller applicant pool at that point? Or, will current hiring freezes more than make up the difference and we'll all be screwed? :cry:
AllFiredUp Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 That's the argument I've heard, i.e., that frozen lines will be re-upped in a few years. I think it sounds slightly specious, but I could be wrong. Who's to say budget priorities will be the same the past two FY five or six years from now?
AllFiredUp Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Also, it is contingent on the economy being better in 6-7 years. The thesis sounds like one of those GRE essay arguments.
